Goodness - what a day, and what a surrounded-by-stuff moment I'm having. A few boxes from friends came within hours of one another, and I'm surrounded with more Bits than I know what to do with. Some duplicates, some spares, some new interesting stuff I haven't had before.

Wallstreet I 13" G3/233 with battery & cd

Wallstreet II 14" G3/233 with battery, cd & PSU

Powerbook 520 with two PSUs - awesome hinges and case on this one.

Power Mac 7500/100 (almost completing the PPC601 collection!)

Apple microphone (the more modern gumdrop one)

MacAlarm alarm kit for Macs

external Superdrive floppy

spare mechanism for the above

internal ATA zip drive

2x SCSI cd burners

1x ATA cd burner

3x CDROMs

a couple of small DIMMs, SIMMs and a 256KB L2 Cache card

DVDRAM drive with disk

Photoshop 5.0 and MacLink Plus 11.0 original CDs

1.4GB 2.5" ATA HD

and some other bits & bobs I'll have to identify later 🙂

And for a little mac minutiae - 13" vs 14" wallstreet lids:

and

The smaller screen got the smoothed off case, where the 14" screen had the chunkier top.

yeah, when I got my 14" wallstreet, I noticed the diffrence between it and the old 13". the 14" also has a real latch with a spring, where the 13" you have to carefully pull on the tab to get it open. it does not push inward like on the 14".
